Enleum AMP-23R - Integrated Amplifier with Headphone Amplifier

89,000 SEK

The Enleum AMP-23R is a "genuine" dual-function amplifier that can power both speakers and headphones alike. The headphone output is not handled by a separate circuit but follows the same path as that for speakers. The signal is split just before the outputs into different relays, with a lower current for the headphone jack to provide some protection for fragile devices. With this, the AMP-23R manages to drive "almost anything" from 4 ohms to 600 ohms or more. Its output impedance is about 0.8 ohms and it outputs about 15 watts to 14 ohms and 4 watts to 60 ohms, which reduces linear with higher impedances. This amplifier is something really special - it plays extremely detailed and engaging, with a lot of "live feeling" where the music is always given life and presence. Of course, it has its limitations due to its limited power resources, so it is important to test that it is able to drive the speakers with which it is to be paired. Regarding headphones, however, there is no doubt that it can handle even the most demanding headphones. "To summarize, Enleum AMP-23R is as non-casual as the Bakoon was before it. Its industrial styling, petite footprint, flawless metalwork and brilliant overall execution already make that point, but I’m not aware of any other similarly voiced as accomplished hardware that sells for less than thrice its tag. Soo In’s newcomer easily pulls sonics way above that sticker to prove us once more that top shelf performance can wear a fabulously compact sharp suit that’s not even remotely close to the industry’s usual suspects. If 25wpc is plenty for you, Enleum AMP-23R is the integrated/headfi amp to get and silly good effort that runs cooler, sells for noticeably less and is audibly more refined than its predecessor that was the best of the low-power kind. The award below merely highlights that." Hifi Knights (Jan 2022) ”This amplifier does all the hi-fi stuff well; it images precisely, has plenty of punch and delivers voices like you wouldn’t believe. I put on the first Nicks/Buckingham Fleetwood Mac [Fleetwood Mac, Warner] album to hear ‘Landslide’ which was lovely but decided that ‘World Keep Turning’ is equally good, that never seemed the case in the past. And that’s a rare and valuable quality in any piece of audio gear, showing the listener just how good the music really is. A lot of stuff makes the better recordings sound great but fails to reveal the musical beauty of less polished productions, but the Enleum gets to the heart and soul of the matter in a very convincing style.” 6Moons (Nov 2021)

Enleum AMP-23R - Integrated Amplifier with Headphone Amplifier

Now Enleum is taking a new leap forward with the AMP-23R. The AMP-23R is the follow-up model of the AMP-13R, completed with all the best capabilities we can implement. While the AMP-13R has been praised all around the world for its utmost performance and unique design, we have pushed our boundaries to create the new AMP-23R with a new circuit that further enhances the existing performance. And we have also drastically improved the PCB circuit board artwork down to the most minute details. The AMP-23R’s physical size and footprint are identical to the AMP-13R, but with the all-new chassis and thermal heatsink design, we’re launching a product that’s fit for the next generation reference compact amplifier. The unique design was again awarded the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2021. The AMP-23R proudly showcases Enleum’s expertise in technology and design. Ensence : Essence of enleum The AMP-23R’s newly developed Essence Circuit was born from years of expertise acquired from previous-generation technologies. Now with a completely new and advanced PCB artwork, the circuit employs all discrete transistors with zero negative feedback and features an ultra-fast and ultra-wide frequency response. All these advanced technologies are concentrated into a compact module, called “Essence” which takes its important role at the input of the amplifier. The Essence module then delivers its incoming music signals to output circuits through a precise attenuator that sets the lossless amplification factor, or gain. “Enlightenment” of design Our philosophy of pursuing “simplicity” remains unchanged in the course of our journey. Our design is focused on perfection with minimalistic originality and beauty, excluding all unnecessary elements in the development process. And as a result, our products have made a solid mark on the audio industry. With years of experience and expertise in precision design and metal crafting technology, we have once again raised the bar with the AMP-23R.
